Hello, I’m kind of a newbie in this, and English is not my native language, so please, go easy on me.
I’m working on a Project but I didn’t yet figure out the best way to do it. That’s why I need your help to find the best way to do it.
The project has to main goals:
1. Provide a good and innovative service to a niche.
2. Send leads to websites that I’m going to promote as an affiliate.
What I really want is a simplified version of Hotels Combined (
www.hotelscombined.com) but for a specific niche (let me use cars as an example). At the homepage, people search for a Mercedes Benz, year 2004, in Spain. The results are a list, with the relevant results, and the link to the merchants stores. This could be, of course, ordered by price, relevance, etc.
It’s so simple as that. I don’t want to make price comparisons like almost every websites of this type does. I don’t want to send people to a page were they see the Mercedes and a list of prices from different merchants that are selling that car. They search, they get the results from several stores that I will be working for and they leave to one of them. End of the story.
I know that stores will give me feed files (xml, csv) with the data. So I just need a script that searches them all and displays the ordered results to the users. I also need to be free to define the searching fields according to the ones of the feed files. Oh, and it has to be CRM…
I’ve told you I’m a newbie, right?
So, what do you recommend? Should I use a price comparison script and change it to fit my needs? Or there’s an easier option?
I hope I’ve made myself clear. Thank you very much.
